I have put in USB PCI card into my ancient computer and it doesn't reach the case, therefore I can't put the screw on. =( I've checked twice the card put into PCI correctly. What do I do?

how close is it ?? a couple CM?? or like 3 inches?? if its only a couple CM then it sounds like your motherboard is not seated properly ..you may be missing the spacers underneath the board. if it is a few inches then you have the wrong type of PCI card... you may be able to adjust the metal plate a little... if not i wouldn't even worry about it just weld it in!!

"my ancient computer" ???
Try another slot, the one you chose isn't a PCI slot.
Or, your PC is so old it doesn't have any PCI slots.
